Special Issue “Polysaccharide Chemistry—a Tool for Novel, Sustainable, and Advanced Products and Materials: A Themed Issue in Honor of Prof. Dr. Thomas Heinze”

Polysaccharides, fascinating biopolymers and the most common organic compounds on earth, possess amazing molecular and supramolecular structures. Chemical modification, including unconventional methods for the modification of polysaccharides, has opened new avenues to...

Durable nanofibrous matrices augmented with hydrotalcite-like compounds for cutaneous regeneration of burn wounds

Electrospinning of Gelatin (G) and Poly-3-hydroxybutyric acid (P) incorporated with anionic drug (AgSD) loaded hydrotalcite (L) (L-AgSD) is carried out to fabricate a nanofibrous scaffold which would recreate the native extracellular matrix...

Incorporation of cellulose fiber in glass ionomer cement

This study investigated the effect of discontinuous cellulose microfibers with various loading fractions on selected physical properties of glass polyalkenoate (glass ionomer) cement (GIC). Fiber‐reinforced GIC (Exp‐GIC) was prepared by adding discontinuous...

Fabrication of Biohybrid Polysaccharide-Protein Material for Wound-Healing Application

Tissue engineering is currently one the fastest growing engineering fields, requiring fabrication of advanced and multifunctional materials to be used as scaffolds or dressing for tissue regeneration. In this work, a bilayer...
